@chmod711telkitty how's rehab?

@Cupcake doing fine ... mainly because I was distracted by having to deal with sh!tty people in real life.

not sh!tty, just minor disagreement ... all sorted now

He said he called at 7am this morning, left no message. There was no trace. After I messaged him, then called his office twice, he finally came and inspected the bathroom. All is fine.

Also told the waterproof tradesman the inspection was yesterday, then told him it got changed to today. He messaged me as soon as the inspector left and demanded the cash within 25 minutes. I told him had wait a little longer because we have to withdraw the cash. He started to scream, probably thinking we were not going to pay him. I Screamed back told him to wait an hour. So we paid him in an hour. So that's sorted too.

I suspect that he cut corner because the inspector said the water proof had to be at least two layers and asked whether it was two layers. So the tradesman either only put 1 layer or did not wait for enough time before putting the 2nd layer.

I hate hiring tradesmen, because they all cut corners when you are not looking. Maybe I should just lower my standard.

The more I have to deal with construction people, the more sh!tty I become. But ... but I don't really want to become a sh!tty person. Unfortunately being sh!tty is extremely good way of achieving your goals. Sadness ...

Oo, software update, ios 9 is now available for my iphone ...

@SmokeDetector fp-

@Andy Yes, and with clever spamming tactics. When I first swept through online training stuff, they had blatant spam surviving for many months, because it was added to some random code sample.

I think gixhub's insistence to linking there instead of Python doc demonstrates bad faith.

sd poof

Notice also how they pick the questions with highest traffic. And are not particularly concerned that their answers don't add new insights.

I suppose we can wait until more evidence is present. Is the user on the blacklist now?

@S.L.Barth I kind of suggested that in my revision comment on the Python answer.

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M A tag that people add to favorite or ignored.

The calculation of chat rep is described here: meta.stackexchange.com/a/175036

Apparently, one could still join 20 sites and be able to chat?

Or with Smoke Detector...

34 rep in SE chat: chat.stackexchange.com/users/120914/smokedetector

This does include the 1-rep accounts.

@S.L.Barth Reading to the end, I went with rude/abusive

Is Mark Henderson a Server Fault moderator or not?

He was removed from the list of moderators. serverfault.com/users?tab=moderators

But the profile still has the diamond. serverfault.com/users/7709/mark-henderson

Caching?

Hm. The activity does not show him locking or closing questions in quadruple digits.

I recall Jason C proposed exactly that a while back: if a mod is temporarily de-modded, keep their diamond on display.

I knew he was going to move between continents. But there was no indication he's stepping down because of that. Or I missed it.

Okay, I'm dumb. Tough day here.

Was still thinking along the lines of other situations with SF mods, however unlikely it was for him.

Have a lot to do, so I'm browsing the twitter list observing how the renaming was handled.

Stack Overheards is still "Quotes from the Stack Exchange company chat"

Kyle Brandt is "Director of Site Reliability at StackExchange." No space even

David Fullerton is "VP of Engineering at Stack Exchange."

Shog is "Being Community Manager-ish at Stack Overflow, Exchange, Waffles."

Funny chain of tweets, beginning with:

I wanted boxed ones, but alas.

Perhaps "①④ hours" would be better.
